Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives (Food Network) — Season premiere. I can’t see Guy Fieri without thinking of the one “Saturday Night Live” skit where Bobby Moynihan actually made me laugh. I think there’s some law of comedic relativity where if an SNL actor I don’t like is portraying a celebrity I dislike more than the actor, I’m allowed to think it’s funny.

Chuck (NBC) — Drew shared this picture with me over the weekend. Say what you will about Christina Hendricks’s husband, at least he’s identifiably male.

24 (Fox) — Michael Madsen guest stars. I don’t care that I haven’t watched the last six or seven episodes — Madsen alone is worth tuning in. Few actors make bad behavior so charming. He could grope my mom and wink at me, and I’d probably just give him a high-five.

Trauma (NBC) — Season finale. Pardon me for not caring, but the only reason this show is on the air is because Leno’s departure from 10 o’clock left the Peacock scrambling for programming.

Gossip Girl (The CW) — William Baldwin guest stars as Blake Lively’s dad. Wait, are we calling Billy Baldwin “William” now? Is that a new development? *Googles*Huh, I guess not.

Fuck those starving kids in Africa. Just $10 a day can help a good Christian soldier in Hollywood pay down his debts!

I will never forgive or forget about Madsen’s awful performance as Don “The Matador” Everest in Tilt.

Wow. Ms. Strahovski’s husband is terrifying.

And, while Madsen isn’t exactly aging well, I still find him ridiculously sexy.

@Enrico: Interesting. I had always assumed that the nickname “The Matador” was reserved for Asante Samuel.

If Yvonne Strahovski’s a lesbian, I’m an even bigger fan of “Chuck”.

The only thing I will say about Christina Hendricks’ husband is that, regardless of what he or any other cast members have done since Super Troopers, they all deserve to have Grade-A poon rubbed in their faces whenever they want.

I think Chris Farley playing Guy Fieri could be an all-time great SNL skit. That would be a good KSK draft, ideal parody matches, past or present.

Including Brian Cox.

No. ESPECIALLY Brian Cox.

It’s off topic….

But if anyone else is interested, since he talks about Party Down all the time, it’s available via Netflix in their Instant Viewing. Season 2 is also there so they must stream the new episodes too if you don’t have Starz.

That one guy from Party Down who also does those MLB commercials was on that show Tell Me You Love Me where he and that hot chick from the old Burger King commercials had freaky sex that people thought was unsimulated.
